Title: Shortcut instadocs
Post by: mickcoffee on March 31, 2016, 10:16:49 AM
Hey guys, seeking some wisdom here.

Yesterday in the ural I got bumped by roamers. One managed to get a lucky 9mm shot that took 78 damage off me. Luckily I didn't bleed but I realised that had I did I would not have had the time to stop the truck, get out, get into inventory, double click instadoc and consume. This got me thinking; is there a way we can create a short cut via configuration to take medical supplies or have one implemented server side? For example, ctr-b = uses bandage, ctr-I = instadoc and ctr-v = vispirin.  It would certainly add a faster pace to combat and increase chances of survival during it. Ctr-t for thermal buddy would also be cool (because my character always forgets a jacket).

On the subject of bleeding, could we vote on adding bleed damage to a.I? It would balance the medical healing required to combat and if the a.i ignore it like us, they die.

Good shout?

Hey dude

Not sure on the technical stuff, but you can access your inventory while you're in a vehicle and use items like instadoc etc...  I think instadoc can also be mapped to a button.  By default, it used to be the middle mouse button, but I haven't tried that in a while.  Might be an option somewhere in Custom Controls?

The ai can bleed out already  :D  I'm sure I've seen them bleed out and die before.  You'll sometimes see them running/limping for cover and instadoc'ing if injured.

Yo,

(info linked from here http://totalpunishmentgaming.com/archive/index.php/t-99554.html (http://totalpunishmentgaming.com/archive/index.php/t-99554.html) )

From what i've just read http://www.exilemod.com/topic/6888-a-couple-ideas-direct-messages-paying-protection-costs-hotkey-instadoc/?page=2 (http://www.exilemod.com/topic/6888-a-couple-ideas-direct-messages-paying-protection-costs-hotkey-instadoc/?page=2) it can be done but reading a few other post on the subject could be a bit OP.

As an example, IRL if your in that situation your Instadoc is in your gear, so searching for it gives you that panic mode of survival rather than a quick fix continue situation.

I kinda like the idea but also like the panic life / death situation. Makes it more realistic to surviving.

Peace n Bleeds

Added for testing, hit backspace to instadock.
This might be changed to Bandage instead.
